I Yes, I'd like to have a program that keeps a connection open such that the client can tell the server to exec one of the three programs. This should be without consideration of a password or loginid. I've used NET::Telnet but because of the password changes the applications fail. From what I can see is that server deamon on one box you'll bypass the requirement for password. My problem is that I don't know where to start. I've heard that HTTP GET and POST with CGI will do. I've never written anything of that nature. To do research on it will take quite sometime, thus just need the basics on how to do.

The reason for this is the password changes every month and the scripts that I'm currently using fails because of that. Is this possible in perl? Do you mean you want to have a program that connects to another box and keeps that connection open all the time, so it can execute commands several months from now when the password would have changed? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This e-mail and its contents are subject to the Telkom SA Limited e-mail legal notice available at http://www.telkom.co.za/TelkomEMailLegalNotice.PDF ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
